Carom is an exotic fruit also known as star fruit. It grows on carom trees, which are commonly found in the tropical regions of Asia, South America, and South America.
The shape of the carom resembles a star, which is why it got its name. It may be green or yellow, depending on the degree of maturity. Inside the carom are juicy, crunchy petals that have a sweet and sour taste.
Caroms are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, and are high in vitamins A, B and minerals such as potassium and magnesium. They are often used in cooking to add to salads, drinks, desserts and other dishes.
Carom also has uses in middle medicine, especially in Asia, where it is used to treat inflammation problems, colds, ventricular disorders, and other ailments. However, as with other foods, you should consult a doctor before consuming star fruit to avoid possible health problems.
